Yes, it's insane, but, which would you be? And why?

Oat Crunchies.

No longer widely available, having both benefits (healthy oats) and risk factors (high salt), slightly "retro" if not exactly downright old-fashioned, not designed to stop masturbation (hint - look up John Harvey Kellog), and will be remembered fondly by a small number of people.

... you are a caution!

"Not designed to stop masturbation", you say.

How I would simply adore seeing that one used as a "slug" in their advertising; it would certainly be a relief from daily onslaught and media love affaire with all things "Regularity", "Toilet-training" (both Child and recently Adult ... think Depends or Tena), "Bottom-cleansing", "Age-defying", "Healthy-diet", "Feminine-hygiene" (an oldie but goodie that's recently made a comeback ... remember those noxious FDS Deodorant Spray ads or the Massengill Vaginal Douches, albeit they didn't call them that back then, and would likely call-a-spade-a-spade today if they ran them) or even Johnson & Johnson's much bally-hoed "KY Intimacy Experiment", features deemed to risky to air even on Canadian Television and thus relegated to the World of YouTube and fast becoming a viral event all of its' own, wherein they took an industry staple and standard, re-packaged and re-branded, making it the next best thing and designer phenomenon.

Kellogg surely must have rolled over in his grave with the "Kellogg" sponsored "Thighs" commercials (I can't recall which product it was shilling) of 5-years ago; but, I can readily picture him rising up and smiting his marketing team were they ever to introduce that one into the mix; and a good time would be had by all were they to have the guts to use it.

I would have to say that I am Kellogg's Fruit Loops

... if only because I can; I would choose "Rice Krispies"; it all being, LOL, about the "Snap, Crackle and Pop" don't you see, and according to Kellogg's own web-site ricekrispies.ca "Moms Just Know".

If only that were always true, life for many a gay-youth would have been, and likely would be today, all that much simpler.

I must be a Rice Krispie as well. Every morning I get out of bed to the sound of snap, crackle and pop. ;-D

Coz nobody does it like Uncle Toby.
Not sure if that's a sling off to Mr Kellog.

I love plain old fashioned Cream of Wheat hot cereal. Not so much in the summers, but in the fall and winter it is great. You can eat it with butter and salt and pepper like grits, or with fruit and cinnamon and sugar, or just plain.

... whatever it was that your "Uncle Toby" was doing, LOL, at the time he was doing it.

Regardless I'm thinking that old man Kellogg wouldn't have approved, dour, humourous old wind-bag that he was. From what I've read he didn't approve of a whole lot, other than moving his bowels and avoiding the pitfalls of "irregularity".

Oh, I think Cheerios.

I'll leave you guessing why for the moment.

We, of course could ask "if that's the Honey-nut variety?", or one of a slew of others that have appeared over the years; my own take would be that it's likely because of the "Big G" in Goodness has struck your fancy, and Cheerios was the first of General Mills' brands to use that particular advertising slug, it's got to be more than 40-years ago or more (and now long-since abandoned); with that probably having appealed to a teen-aged boy in particular.

If I were a breakfast cereal, I'm sure I'd be a Sugar Puff because they have more fun than other cereals.

I used to eat Roman Meal hot cereal frequently, especially during high school and college. So Roman Meal is who I am.
